Great little cabin!
Beautiful little room with a small kitchen, patio/chairs, and a great window with a view of a glacier. Close to some great attractions, but nice and quiet for some good sleep. The owner was very responsive to our questions and they have a little dossier about the area which was helpful.

The place is very clean and new with amazing views of the glacier. The kitchen and bathroom are adequate, tho the chairs were a bit uncomfortable. The only improvement I would suggest is to have nets on the windows against the bugs and midges or to provide a window fan (midges can't fly in wind). There is standing water nearby which provides conditions for midges. We were there on an unusually warm day and since the house is exposed, the inside temperature was 27C (80F). No fans are available, so we had to open the windows. We got an incredible amount of midge bites. This made our stay very unpleasant.

Excellent spot to stay. Medium sized guesthouses (size is similar to shipping container) on beautiful land. Views are outstanding. Grazing sheep will be the soundtrack for your dreams. Check-in is simple and easy, one doesnt even have to see anyone else. We arrived after 2AM and quietly entered our unit. Blackout curtains did their job, and we slept easily. Higly recommended.

Great stay! The unit was spacious and very clean. Loved the view of the glacier out the rear window. Owners were very quick to respond. 2 easy recommendations- 2 more pillows and paper towels and/or paper napkins in the dinette area. Would absolutely stay here again! Thank you!

It's in a gravelled forecourt next to the road. Beautifully finished studio, but it's very small and ridiculously expensive.

Great property to stay at if you plan on driving to the east side of Iceland. Super quiet. The facilities were well kept and had everything we needed for a 2 night stay. Grocery shopping and gas wasn’t too far away in Hofn. Great views out the window !

Brand new, compact apartment overlooking the glacier (back window). Owner was very personable and helpful. Full glass front window/door with large window over the comfy bed in the back. Good kitchenette with 2 of everything. Great coffee! Love the heated bathroom floors! Shower is a little tight.

Rooms are clean. Perfect view from my window of the glacier. Sky roof gave me a chance to do stargazing from their very comfy bed. To top it all, we saw the Northern Lights while we were there.

Cozy and comfortable! Super clean and modern. Love the heated bathroom floors! Kitchenette has everything you need to make a simple breakfast but be sure to pick up groceries on the way if you plan on making breakfast since there are no grocery stores nearby. Closest one is a gas station that has very basic groceries and is an hour away. Self check in, clear instructions will be sent 24 hours in advance. Only one luggage stand provided to place one small luggage, so one issue is there is nowhere to store/lay another luggage if traveling as a couple so pack light or keep stuff under the bed or in your car. But we will definitely stay again someday!
